Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Oakridge Heights

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 21.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. SNAP participation runs 3.1% against 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $2,123, 19% above the Sandy average.

Food insecurity runs 7.5% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 54 eviction filings across 9 observed years. It sits 0.8 points below the Salt Lake County average of 3.8.

Filings peaked in 2009 at 14.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.0% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
